Section 1. GENERAL

DESCRIPTIVE DATA

This AFMS Revision applies to aircraft that have the turbonormalizing systems
configured at installation or later upgraded with the current, as of August 1, 2000 or later,
intercooler, induction, baffling, and fuel injector configuration. Aircraft with the earlier
intercooler, induction, baffling, and fuel injector configuration will require the use of
different fuel flow values than are set forth in this AFMS revision. This AFMS should
not be used for aircraft with earlier configurations of this STC that have not been
upgraded to the configuration available on or after August 31, 2000. Only aircraft that
have been configured to conform to this latest revision are eligible for the gross weight
increases described below.

ENGINE

Your Bonanza is powered by one Continental Motors engine model IO-550-B, fuel-
injected, direct-drive, air-cooled, horizontally-opposed, 6-cylinder, 550- cubic inch
displacement, rated at 300 horsepower. This engine has been modified by the addition of
an intercooled turbonormalizing system with an automatic wastegate control.

The Tornado Alley Turbo Whirlwind™ system provides a stable environment for the
engine to operate within. The Tornado Alley Turbo Whirlwind™ system will provide
29.6 inches of manifold pressure to 20,000 feet or higher.

PROPELLER
The following propellers are approved for installation with the Tornado Alley
TurboWhirlwind™ system with the IO-550 series engines:

Propeller High pitch at 30- Minimum Maximum Note

and 27.7” Hg of manifold pressure having 2-6th, 1-5th and 1-4th order crankshaft dampers installed.
Note (2): Propeller high pitch settings may be changed to those listed.
Note (3): McCauley D3A37C3401/C80MNF-1 high pitch setting does not need to be changed.

Other STC’s which approve installation of IO-550-B engines in models of aircraft approved for
this STC may authorize other propeller installations, and those propellers may be used when
installed pursuant to those STCs.

Section 2. OPERATING LIMITATIONS

A. The Tornado Alley Turbo Whirlwind™ 550 is certified as flat-rated (maintains sea level
manifold pressure) to an operating altitude of 20,000 feet when installed on this aircraft.
Above 20,000 feet available power is reduced as altitude increases.

B. Propeller high pitch setting may be changed (except D3A37C3401/C80MNF-1):


McCauley propellers……………………….34.5 + 1° at 30 inch station
Hartzell PHC-CYF-1RF propellers………...37.0 + 1° at 30 inch station

C. When 3A32C76/82NB propeller is installed the following operating limitation shall be


affixed near the manifold pressure gage: “DO NOT EXCEED 27.7” MANIFOLD
PRESSURE AT SEA LEVEL”. Aircraft with this limitation are not eligible for the
described gross weight increases.

D. Maneuvers – NORMAL CATEGORY:


Your aircraft, unless it is equipped with a McCauley 3A32C76/82NB propeller, has been
approved for increased maximum takeoff weights and landing weights in accordance
with the following chart. All operations above the original maximum weight listed in the
Aircraft Flight Manual are to be NORMAL CATEGORY operations. Spins and
acrobatic maneuvers are not permitted in NORMAL CATEGORY operations.

Utility Category operations may continue to be performed in accordance with weight and
balance limitations listed in the OEM Airplane Flight Manual for your airplane.

Section 3. EMERGENCY PROCEDURES

ENGINE RESTART (STOPPAGE AFTER RETARDING THROTTLE TO IDLE)


Retarding the throttle to idle at or near full rich mixture setting may cause engine
combustion to cease, depending on auxiliary fuel pump operation and altitude. At
altitudes below 18,000 feet, merely advancing the throttle should cause resumption of
normal engine operation. Above 18,000 feet, if the windmilling engine does not restart,
the following procedure should be used:
1. Advance throttle. If engine does not restart, then:
2. Auxiliary Fuel Pump – OFF
3. Throttle – 1/2 OPEN
4. Propeller – HIGH RPM
5. Mixture Control – LEAN until engine starts, then slowly advance to FULL RICH
6. Throttle, Mixture and Auxiliary Fuel Pump – RESET for desired operation

Retarding the throttle to idle at or near very lean mixture setting may cause engine
combustion to cease. This problem is most likely to occur when the pilot fails to enrichen
the mixture before landing.

UNEXPECTED LOSS OF MANIFOLD PRESSURE

IMMEDIATE ACTION
Regardless of the cause, in the event (see “FURTHER INFORMATION”, below)
of an unexpected loss of manifold pressure the pilot should immediately:
1. Reduce power to the minimum power setting required for continued flight to a
suitable landing.
2. Pull the Vent Shutoff/Firewall Air Control, to the closed position.
3. Adjust mixture so that EGT’s are between 1300 and 1400°F. Depending on the
circumstances, this may require substantial readjustment (either richer or leaner)
of the mixture after loss of manifold pressure.
4. Open the cowl flaps.
5. Declare an emergency when time and workload permit.
6. Descend to the minimum safe altitude from which a landing may be most safely
and expeditiously accomplished, but leaving adequate altitude for a possible
forced landing in the event of fire or complete loss of engine power.
7. Remain alert for the possibility of a fire in the engine compartment. In the event
of a fire in the engine compartment, shut off the fuel at the fuel valve and follow
the Beech emergency procedure for an inflight fire as described in the AFM.

FURTHER INFORMATION
If, for any reason, the aircraft experiences an unexpected loss of normal manifold
pressure, the aircraft will, typically, revert to operation similar to, but at reduced
available power, compared to a normally aspirated aircraft at approximately the
same altitude and fuel flow. However, in this situation, continued flight should

FAA Approved: Oct 01, 2020 Page 16 of 32


Tornado Alley Turbo
300 Airport Road AFMS-550, Rev. J for:
Ada, OK 74820 Bonanza __________

only be conducted to the nearest suitable landing place in order to investigate the
cause of the unexpected loss of normal manifold pressure.

The four most likely causes of a loss of manifold pressure are:


1. A leak or rupture at an induction system coupling or a loose or failed induction
coupling hose clamp. This condition does not usually present a significant hazard
and can usually be repaired promptly at most repair facilities. While this first
condition is, by far, the most common cause of unexpected loss of manifold
pressure, any of the next three conditions may present an immediate hazard
to continued safe flight.

Because it is difficult for the pilot to distinguish between a simple induction


system leak and any of the following three possible causes of an unexpected
loss of manifold pressure, all unexpected losses of manifold pressure should
be assumed to be one of the three following causes until proven otherwise.

2. A significant leak in the exhaust system. An exhaust leak may present a possible
fire hazard. Reducing power and adjusting the mixture as described reduces the
possibility of an engine compartment fire.

3. A loss of oil pressure to the wastegate actuator due to a general loss of engine oil
pressure. Typically, this is caused by a failed oil line, oil line fitting, or oil pump.
It takes 15 PSI of oil pressure to begin to close the wastegate and the wastegate
will not be capable of fully closing and making rated manifold pressure at altitude
unless there is approximately 45 PSI of engine oil pressure. Unexpected loss of
manifold pressure or failure to maintain normal full manifold pressure at altitude
may be due to an oil leak and impending further loss of oil pressure. Monitor oil
pressure closely. Oil can be lost with stable oil temperature in flight until nearly
all of the oil in the system is vented. The pilot should not assume that a stable
oil temperature is an indication that oil is not being lost out of the engine
lubrication system.

4. A failure of an internal component in the turbocharger. If the pilot experiences a


sudden loss of manifold pressure and later observes declining oil pressure, it is
most likely due to a failure of an internal turbocharger component. If there is a
loss of oil pressure due to a failure of the turbocharger, engine oil may be vented
through the tail pipe overboard. Over a period of a few minutes, the pilot may
then see a reduction in oil pressure with the oil pressure eventually dropping into
the 10 to 15 PSI range. There is a check valve at the oil flow inlet to the
turbocharger set at approximately 10 PSI. Thus, if engine oil pressure drops into
this range, the oil flow overboard through the turbocharger should, normally,
cease and the engine should be able to maintain minimal oil pressure which will
allow the engine to operate as a normally aspirated engine for a limited period of
time. Keep in mind that check valves sometimes fail to function properly due to
mechanical reasons or due to contamination of the oil system with debris.

Section 4. NORMAL PROCEDURES

PREFLIGHT
Per Pilots Operating Handbook. In addition, prior to the first flight of the day, while the
engine is cold, grasp the end of the tailpipe where it exits the lower left cowl area and firmly
attempt to wiggle the tailpipe. If there is any indication that the tailpipe is not fully secure, it
must be repaired before further flight. DO NOT FLY THE AIRCRAFT WITH A LOOSE
TAILPIPE.
Also, if flight above 12,500 feet MSL is anticipated, be sure supplemental oxygen
requirements per FAR 91.211(a) can be met by checking oxygen quantity and verifying
masks and/or cannulas as required are available for all occupants.

TAKEOFF

Take-Off Power………………………FULL THROTTLE at 2700 rpm


Minimum Recommended Take-Off Oil Temperature………...24°C (75°F)

NOTE
Because this aircraft has a turbonormalizing system that maintains near sea
level manifold pressure for all takeoffs, the mixture should normally be full
rich for takeoff, even at high elevation airports. Other than as described in
paragraph 4, below, any leaning for takeoff and during maximum
performance climbs will cause excessive cylinder head temperatures.

1. Auxiliary Fuel Pump - OFF Below 5,000’ Density Altitude (D.A.)


- ON LO above 5,000’ D.A.

WARNING
Use of the auxiliary fuel pump in the HI position may cause an
excessively rich mixture and severely reduce available engine power or
even cause the engine to cease combustion completely. The HI position
should not be used during take-off or low altitude operation unless there
is a failure of the engine driven fuel pump.

2. Brakes – HOLD
3. Manifold Pressure – 29.6 IN. Hg. at Wide Open Throttle (WOT)

(27.7 IN. Hg. IS MAX MAP WITH MCCAULEY 3A32C76/8NB PROPELLER)

NOTE
WOT MP may increase to 30 – 32 in. Hg. on first flight of the day due to

5. Auxiliary Fuel Pump – Use LO above 5,000’ D.A.
Use HI above 10,000’ D.A.
If fuel flow exceeds 35 GPH, then lean as required to obtain 35 GPH.
6. Monitor Turbine Inlet Temperature if installed. A normal climb TIT should be 682°C -
715°C (1260°F - 1310°F). TIT should not exceed 715ºC (1310ºF). If TIT exceeds this
value, and to avoid an excessive rise in CHTs, Auxiliary Fuel Pump set LO or set HI
if above 10,000’ D.A. If the problem persists, and CHTs increase from normal climb
values, lower the nose and increase indicated air speed as required.
7. Monitor Cylinder Head Temperature. If any CHT exceeds 193ºC (380ºF) verify full rich
fuel flow, using the boost pump as described in 6 above. If fuel flow is inadequate to
keep all CHT’s below 193ºC (380ºF), use HI Auxiliary Fuel Pump (regardless of D.A.)
and lean mixture (if required) to 35.0 gph for the duration of the climb. Verify cowl flaps
are full open. Lower the nose and increase airspeed as required to maintain the hottest
CHT at or below 193ºC (380ºF).
8. Oxygen – ON as required (above 12,500’ daytime, above 5000’ night time
recommended). CHECK masks for proper flow.

CRUISE
WARNING
Retarding the throttle to idle at or near full rich mixture setting may cause engine
combustion to cease, depending on auxiliary fuel pump operation and altitude. At
altitudes below 18,000 feet, merely advancing the throttle should cause resumption
of normal engine operation. Above 18,000 feet, if the windmilling engine does not
restart, follow the procedures entitled “ENGINE RESTART (STOPPAGE AFTER
RETARDING THROTTLE TO IDLE)” in the Emergency procedures section.

NOTE
Continental Motors Critical Service Bulletin CSB09-11A (supersedes CSB09-11,
SB07-8 and SB07-8A) strongly recommends that engine cruise power settings should
be no lower than 2300 RPM.
(Normal long term cruise at 2300 RPM is acceptable, no need to be cautious about 2300
RPM. Reducing power and using lower RPM for descents is also acceptable.)

2. Aux Pump OFF If fuel flow fluctuates, select LO.
3. Mixture – Use the TIT (preferred) or EGT system to lean the fuel/air mixture when
cruising at 75% power setting or less in the following manner:
Slowly lean the mixture and note the point on the indicator where the TIT or EGT
temperature peaks and starts to fall.
4. Increase the mixture until the TIT (or EGT if no TIT is installed) reaches its maximum

approximately:
14.0 to 16.0 gph at 2300 RPM
15.5 to 17.5 gph at 2500 RPM

NOTE
When this reduction in fuel flow is performed as described, the pilot will
notice a slight deceleration of the aircraft as the mixture passes from rich
of peak TIT (EGT) to lean of peak TIT (EGT).

7. Cylinder Head Temperature – CHECK If any CHT exceeds 193ºC (380ºF), LEAN
mixture further in 0.25 gph increments. If all CHT’s are under 193ºC (380ºF), mixture
may be increased in 0.1 to 0.2 gph increments.
8. Auxiliary Fuel Pump – after one half hour cruise, OFF. If fuel flow fluctuates, return to
LO. Mixture may need to be reset as in 1-7 above.

NOTE
2600 RPM may be used for cruise, although there will normally be elevated
noise levels. Using 2600 RPM for cruise is sometimes useful during hot
weather, as it tends to compensate for the reduced mass airflow through the
engine cylinder combustion chambers.

Duration times are based upon flows of standard 1.0 liters/minute per 10,000 feet for masks.
Duration times for cannulas are based upon the use of Mountain High MH-3 or MH-4 flowmeters using the scale
calibrated for Oxymizer cannulas. Duration times using other flowmeters may vary (consult flowmeter
manufacturer’s data for flow rates). Duration times listed are based upon all occupants using either masks or
cannulas, but not a mixture of the two devices.

1. Always abide by the oxygen-use requirements of the FARs but treat them as minimum
requirements that may often be inadequate to prevent hypoxic impairment.
2. Always use supplemental oxygen at the first sign of hypoxic symptoms (visual
impairment, headache, dizziness, nausea, anxiety, panic, confusion, etc.), and adjust the
oxygen flow to alleviate those symptoms.
3. If a pulse oximeter is available, the pilot and passengers should note their oxygen
saturation levels at their home airport. ("Home" is the elevation at which you have lived
for the majority of time during the past 180 days.). Monitor oxygen saturation levels
while in flight. It is recommended that a person use oxygen if their saturation drops five
points below their home airport saturation level. Therefore, some people will require
oxygen at 8,000 feet and others might not need it before reaching higher altitude. Once
the decision to use oxygen is made, the level should be titrated by adjusting the oxygen
flow to bring the saturation close to the home field levels.
4. If operating at night, use of O2 may improve your night vision and should be considered,
especially after longer flights at higher elevations.

Section 4. NORMAL PROCEDURES (continued)

EXPANDED NORMAL PROCEDURES

OPERATIONS AT CRUISE POWER WITH THE MIXTURE SET LEAN OF PEAK TIT
OR PEAK EGT:
When the engine is operating in a stable condition, and as a check on the mixture setting,
the pilot may verify that the engine is operating lean of peak as follows:
1. Cowl Flaps – OPEN
2. Verify no CHT exceeds 193ºC (380ºF)
3. Mixture – Slowly increase mixture while observing the TIT or EGT increase in value
towards peak TIT (EGT).
NOTE
When operating lean of peak TIT or EGT, increasing fuel flow will
cause the TIT or EGT to rise towards its maximum or peak value. This
is the opposite effect than when operating rich of peak TIT (EGT).

4. When the TIT (EGT) reaches its maximum value, note that value (typically between
860ºC and 888ºC (1580ºF and 1630ºF) and then promptly lean the mixture so that the
TIT (EGT) is at least 33ºC (60ºF) below the observed maximum (peak) value.

CAUTION
THIS PROCEDURE SHOULD NOT TAKE MORE THAN 2 MINUTES TO
COMPLETE. OPERATIONS AT HIGH POWER NEAR PEAK EGT OR TIT
FOR EXTENDED PERIODS WILL CAUSE EXCESSIVELY HIGH CHT’S.
5. Cowl Flaps – After the CHT’s have returned below 193ºC (380ºF) then CLOSE the
cowl flaps.
NOTE
In warm or hot weather, the fuel flow at 33ºC (60ºF) lean of peak will
be as much as 0.5 to 0.75 gph less than it will be at the same 33ºC
(60ºF) lean of peak during cold weather.
If any CHT consistently operates in climb or cruise at temperatures in
excess of 193ºC (380ºF) then the aircraft engine and baffling should be
inspected for discrepancies by a competent mechanic knowledgeable of
the system.

When operating the engine lean of peak TIT (EGT) the horsepower may be estimated by
the following simple formula:
HP = fuel flow (gph) x 14.9
Example: Fuel flow = 15 gph. HP = 15 x 14.9 = 223 horsepower

This formula is not valid for mixture settings rich of peak TIT (EGT). This
formula is not valid for other than the Continental IO-520/IO-550.

Section 5. PERFORMANCE (Performance Section is not FAA Approved)

The performance of this airplane equipped with the Tornado Alley Turbo Whirlwind™
Turbonormalizing System is equal to or better than the performance as listed in the
original Flight Manual when operated in the Utility Category.

When using noise abatement procedures for climb (rpm reduced to 2650), climb rate is
not appreciably affected.

However, when operating at the increased weights authorized when operations are
conducted in the NORMAL CATEGORY expect:

A. Increased Takeoff Distance of up to: 30%

B. Decreased Rate-of-Climb of up to: 13%

C. Increased Stall Speed of up to: 7%

D. Increased Landing Distance of up to: 15%

E. Increased Takeoff and Approach Speeds: Increase 2 Kts.

F. Increased Vx and Vy speeds: Increase 2 Kts.

CAUTION

OPERATIONS DURING VERY HOT WEATHER:


Temperature Effects on Engine, Fuel Flow, and Aircraft
Performance.

While turbocharged and turbonormalized engines will fully compensate for high
altitude loss of ambient pressure, they do not normally provide any compensation
for changes in air density due to elevated non-standard ambient temperatures.

Maximum power at 29.6 In. Hg. and 2700 RPM will be reduced by
approximately 1% for each six (6) degrees F that the ambient temperature exceeds
the ISA temperature for the altitude at which the aircraft is operating. This
adverse effect on performance due to elevated ambient temperatures should be
given careful consideration, especially when operating at higher aircraft gross
weights (> 3,600 lbs). Pilots unfamiliar with the effects of reduced power and
higher gross weights should be particularly careful to ensure adequate runway
distance and initial climb rate in order to clear obstructions.

Section 5. PERFORMANCE (continued)

During extremely hot weather (> ISA + 30 degrees F) and with hot fuel in the fuel
tanks, the boost pump may need to be used in the LOW position in order to obtain
stable fuel flow for takeoff and initial climb.

CAUTION
Be careful not to use the HIGH BOOST position as that can flood
the engine and cause a loss of power, including a loss of all power
until the BOOST PUMP is returned from HIGH to OFF or LOW.

For maximum power operations (wide open throttle, 29.6 in Hg MAP, 2700
RPM) fuel flow should be 35 GPH. On hot days, takeoff performance will be
improved slightly with the fuel flow at the values listed below until clear of
obstructions. Then the fuel flow should be returned to 35 GPH.

WEIGHT AND BALANCE


Adverse Effects of Operation at Forward C.G. in A36 and G36 Model Aircraft

While most pilots are familiar with the adverse effects of operating with aft
loading, care should be given to A36 and G36 aircraft as they can be easily loaded
with the C.G. forward of the approved forward c.g. limit. This condition is more
likely with aircraft equipped with tip tanks and full or nearly full loads of fuel.

Operation with the aircraft forward of the approved c.g. limit is not approved and
attempted operation in that condition will result in significantly decreased takeoff
and climb performance due to the increased downward aerodynamic loading of
the horizontal stabilizer.

Pilots are obligated to ensure that the loading of the aircraft will result in flight
operations within the approved weight and balance envelope.

Section 8. HANDLING, SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE (Handling,


Servicing and Maintenance Section is not FAA Approved)

OXYGEN SYSTEM (This section only applies to oxygen system with light-weight oxygen
bottles installed per STC SA5223NM. For standard oxygen systems installed by Beech or
oxygen systems per other STC use instructions of Beech Airplane Flight Manual or STC’s
AFMS as appropriate.)

To service the oxygen system, use the following procedures:

NOTE
When filling the oxygen system, only use 99.99% pure
oxygen to be sure that it does not contain moisture which
can cause the oxygen valve to freeze.

WARNING
Keep hands, tools, clothing, and oxygen equipment clean and free from grease
and oil. KEEP FIRE AND SPARKS AWAY FROM OXYGEN. Use only
recommended leak testing soaps (i.e. castile soap and water solution).

1. Read the pressure gage for the oxygen system.


2. Gain access to the filler port for the oxygen system. Remove the cap from the filler valve
and attach the recharging outlet. (On aircraft with the oxygen cylinder located ahead of
the front spar, the cylinder may be removed for recharging if desired. Carefully
disconnect the electrical connector and low pressure oxygen line from the valve on the
end of the cylinder before removing cylinder from the aircraft.)
3. Slowly fill the cylinder to 1850 ± 50 psi at a temperature of 70ºF. This pressure may be
increased an additional 3.5 psi for each degree of increase in temperature. Similarly, for
each degree of drop in temperature, reduce the cylinder pressure 3.5 psi.
4. Remove the recharging outlet, and replace the filler valve cap.
5. Reinstall components removed to gain access to the filler valve. (Place oxygen cylinder
in holder and reconnect electrical connector and low pressure oxygen line if cylinder was
removed for servicing. Close cover.)

OXYGEN CYLINDER RETESTING

The 77 cubic foot and 115 cubic foot oxygen cylinders are Kevlar® wrapped aluminum
specifically designed for aviation use. They must be removed and sent to a facility
authorized by DOT to hydrostatically test them in accordance with 49 CFR part 180 §§
180.205 and 180.209 as prescribed for DOT 3HT cylinders every 5 years and must be
retired from service after 15 years. For aircraft stationed outside the United States have
the O2 bottle requalified in accordance with equivalent requirements of your country.
The Aluminum 22.8 cubic foot oxygen cylinders must be hydrostatic tested every 5
years.
Keep oxygen cylinder manufacturer’s instructions with this AFMS for future reference.
